Just heard Light years Away for the first time!
Sounds pretty cool with a nice melody. Not as much of an insane solo as might be expected with the title but the outro is pretty other-worldly sounding.
Thought I'd mention this
It's been up for a couple of weeks now, it's my first original recored to a drum track with no bass but it's a start.

Do The Stu - you like the track then? No comment on Mike's key work?
Joe - great insight into what's to come. That groove is awesome, loving this in headphones even more!

I guess they decided to throw the single out there a little extra early... That's quite alright, though. I will listen to it now, I don't mind not waiting! Although I'm gonna have to call it a night after a couple play throughs and give it proper attention tomorrow. Sounds like a great track; nice energy and use of the effects. I'll break out my Koss Portapro's tomorrow and really get into it!
At least we know now that the BBW video song is not LYA... I guess we will find out when the countdown begins which song it actually is..
Anyway, time for bed- Goodnight all, I'll be Light Years Away for a few hours!

Just cut my hair from over a foot long to under 4 inches, and shaved my mustache and goatee clean off. Feeling like a brand new man and look about 5 years younger everyone says.
Btw, Light Years Away is truly Kick Ass.
Shedding the 80's rocker/metalhead putting on the modern rocker, all good as chapters of life go by.

Hello,
First let me get this of my chest LYA is awsome, can't wait for the show in Amsterdam. (I'm gona upgrade my ticket full package deal, hehe)
I Am currently working on a inductorless wah pedal.
(taken from the ADA MP-2 preamp) This is designed by the same guy that made the EMB Audio Remote Wah and that is the sound i want to get. (I'll always keep using an inductor based wah for a little more quack;))
Annywho i was wondering if you ever used one?
And do you still have/use it.
Some rumours on the net suggested you had one.
(if you do i'll be foced to hypnotize you and have you give the most wahsome wahmachine to me:))
Thx, Eric
P.S. please get Ibanez to make an Alder Body JS-1000 :)

I love the riff at the beginning. I definitely hear the ZZ Top feel creeping through the woodwork in some parts of the song. And I like the little breakdowns with those jazzy chords. This is destined to be a great album.
P.S. It's already on Youtube?! Wow
*Edit- Sorry to distract everybody from Light Years Away, but I just found this guy who has nailed Joe's tone perfectly. He made his own song called The Voyagers. It is really, really good. You could tell he has a strong Satriani influence, but he has his own style as well. It has that Crystal Planet vibe and feel to it. It also sounds a little Arabian, which Joe plays in the Crystal Planet album here and there.

So I am taking my son, age 11, to the concert and meet & greet in Boston on the 9th of December. I am wondering if it is possible for him to bring his guitar and have Joe sign it. Concern #1: would Joe be ok with this?
Concern #2: would the venue - house of blues - have an issue with him bringing it in?
Concern #3: what do we do with it during the show? and/or is there time for me to run it back to the car after the meet and greet, but before the show starts, or do I have to mind it during the entire show?
Any thoughts or responses would be appreciated.
Thanks

Michelle - thanks , glad you like em. I first saw ZZ TOP in the 70s touring the Fandango album with Canned Heat opening for them. Billy Gibbons looks real thin , I wonder if he is sick?Dunno....
OMG - Light Years Away - sooo good , can hardly wait! I am going to Colorado to spend Christmas with my kids.They are going to see JOE for the first time! in Denver.
Christmas = Silent Night / Holy Night Jam.....please!!

I agree with DTS.. the new tune is really playful and FUN!
Here's something that I found that is REALLY cool! You know you want that new song on your player, but how to download, right?
Ta da!
Then use this to "fix" the wrong tag info (vbr's often give wrong durations).
Also, how many Dethklok fans we got up in here? Brendon Small is one of my new favorite guitarists, gotta be the best kept secret in guitar music, he's just really, really good. (IMHO).
Here then is a "new" song, along with a rumor of a forthcoming Dethalbum III *droool*.
One last thing, anyone who hasn't checked out the new Paul Gilbert album, Fuzz Universe really ought to do themselves a favor and give it a listen... holy canoley! I have not been able to stop listening to it since I got it. Maybe his finest playing to date, and that IS saying something!
Blowtorch is my current favorite song (right after the title track, Fuzz Universe).
smooches,
» Phy³
